A Sucker Punch For A Sucker

Well we’ve all probably seen the “punch”.  LeGarrette Blount hits Boise State’s Byron Hout after Hout is seen taunting him after the game.  So Oregon loses a 1,ooo yard rusher from a year ago and probably any shot at a PAC 10 Championship or a BCS bid.  Chip Kelly will have to rely on 2 Redshirt Freshman in the backfield.

But LeGarrette Blount has lost much more this young man needs to take the rest of this year a assess where he is at and decide if he wants to be an elite running back or a thug.  His career in collegiate football is over, but will he recover and have any shot at a NFL career.  He has a year to prove he’s not the man that threw that punch.
